Raptors sign No. 4 overall pick Scottie Barnes

The Raptors have signed Scottie Barnes to his first NBA contract, tweets Josh Lewenberg of TSN Sports.

The Florida State forward was something of a surprise pick at No. 4, but Toronto was attracted to his potential to be a difference maker on defense. He was named ACC Freshman of the Year and Sixth Man of the Year during his lone season with the Seminoles, averaging 10.3 points, 4.0 rebounds, 4.1 assists and 1.5 steals per game.

Assuming he gets 120% of the rookie scale, Barnes will make $7.28M during his first season. His contract could be worth up to $33M over four years.

Barnes will play his first Summer League game later today, Lewenberg adds.
